1. One more increase MONARCHY power scheme.
   —-

   Candidate/incumbent rank order lists of replacements.
   Legislative body to fill vacancy if no list candidate qualifies.

2. If one understands voters as mere ratifies and less choosers it’s natural ask why there were ever special election. Special election: the phrase sounds wildcard. Slightly more unpredictability, less stability.

   This is a bad bill sure but the degraded idea of the voter if this prevails. A close-up on what’s normally a down-ballot race. That’s something too wasteful?

   Special elections showcase vacancy and advantages incumbency keep are at odds.

3. In 2005 I worked in a special election in Orange County,
   CA. On election day my candidate received the highest
   vote count. How ever he was not elected. If he had been
   he would of been “American Independent Party”.

   So if this SCA gets approved by the voters, to hold a senate
   or assembly seat to replace an outgoing member of those bodies, the governor can appoint with the approval of that body.

   Therefore, the make up of those bodies could not change, and
   no one would register as a party preference other that the
   party preference ob the current member in office.

   Questions how many RINOS would Governor Brown as a replacement
   pick or in a district that elected a AIP legislator, why would
   Governor Brown pick someone with the political views of the
   AIP, unless he found an “in name only” elector that picked
   a party preference of the American Independent Party?

   This is a very bad legislation.

   Sincerely, Mark Seidenberg, Vice Chairman,
   American Independent Party of CAlifornia
